Judge 2 closed nose, dried fruit, clay pot, very shy. dry palate. lacks freshness
Judge 3 Dark garnet in color, this wine smells of mulberries and blackberry fruit. In the mouth, supple, gauzy tannins wrap around a core of blackberry and dried flowers. There seems like perhaps less intensity of flavor here. but nothing wrong with it. Good acidity
